Awake and Sing! Reviews
Los Angeles Times- Recommended
"...while Odets' fervently polemical play may seem overwrought at intervals, De Santos gives the production the wrenching authenticity and craft born of long familiarity with the material."
LA Weekly- Recommended
"...The Odyssey Theatre's sturdy revival of Clifford Odets's Depression-era drama brings together some familiar faces from the much heralded 1994-95 production that ran here for nine months. Among these is director Elina de Santos, who helms this show with consummate perception and skill."
Broadway World- Recommended
"...The 20th anniversary revival of the Odyssey production of Clifford Odets' classic AWAKE AND SING! receives a raw and reverential mounting. As directed by Elina de Santos, most characters in this two-hour-and-fifteen-minute three-act portray their roles in bold black-and-whites with little shades of grey in between."
